Abstract
Implant dentistry has evolved to the point that standard implant osseointegration is predictable. This is attributed in part to the advancements in material sciences that have led toward improvements in implant surface technology and characteristics. Nonetheless, there remain several cases where implant therapy fails (specifically at early time points), most commonly attributed to factors affecting bone metabolism. Among these patients, smokers are known to have impaired bone metabolism and thus be subject to higher risks of early implant failure and/or late complications related to the stability of the peri-implant bone and mucosal tissues. Notably, however, emerging data have unveiled other critical factors affecting osseointegration, namely, those related to the metabolism of bone tissues. The aim of this review is to shed light on the effects of implant-related factors, like implant surface or titanium particle release; surgical-related factors, like osseodensification or implanted biomaterials; various drugs, like selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, proton pump inhibitors, anti-hypertensives, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medication, and statins, and host-related factors, like smoking, diet, and metabolic syndrome on bone metabolism, and aseptic peri-implant bone loss. Despite the infectious nature of peri-implant biological complications, these factors must be surveyed for the effective prevention and management of peri-implantitis.

Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:ijms24065108.

Abstract
Aseptic loosening is the main reason for arthroplasty failure. The wear particles generated at the tribological bearings are thought to induce an inflammatory tissue response, leading to bone loss and the subsequent loosening of the implant. Different wear particles have been shown to activate the inflammasome, thereby contributing to an inflammatory milieu in the direct vicinity of the implant. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the NLRP3 inflammasome is activated by different metal particles in vitro and in vivo. Three different cell lines representing periprosthetic cell subsets (MM6, MG63 and Jurkat) were incubated with different amounts of TiAlV or CoNiCrMo particles. The activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome was determined through the detection of the caspase 1 cleavage product p20 in a Western blot. The formation of the inflammasome was also investigated in vivo using immunohistological staining for ASC in primary synovial tissues as well as tissues containing TiAlV and CoCrMo particles and in vitro after the stimulation of the cells. The results show that the CoCrMo particles induced ASC more markedly, as a readout for inflammasome formation in vivo, compared to TiAlV particular wear. The CoNiCrMo particles also induced ASC-speck formation in all the tested cell lines, which was not induced by the TiAlV particles. The Western blot shows that NRLP3 inflammasome activation, measured through caspase 1 cleavage, was increased only by the CoNiCrMo particles in the MG63 cells. We conclude from our data that the activation of the inflammasome is mainly driven by CoNiCrMo particles and less by TiAlV particles, indicating that different inflammatory pathways are activated by the different alloys.

Involvement of NF-κB/NLRP3 axis in the progression of aseptic loosening of total joint arthroplasties: a review of molecular mechanisms. Naunyn Schmiedebergs Arch Pharmacol 2022; 395:757-767. [PMID: 35377011 DOI: 10.1007/s00210-022-02232-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/20/2021] [Accepted: 03/11/2022] [Indexed: 10/18/2022]
Abstract
Particulate wear debris can trigger pro-inflammatory bone resorption and result in aseptic loosening. This complication remains major postoperative discomforts and complications for patients who underwent total joint arthroplasty. Recent studies have indicated that wear debris-induced aseptic loosening is associated with the overproduction of pro-inflammatory cytokines. The activation of osteoclasts as a result of inflammatory responses is associated with osteolysis. Moreover, stimulation of inflammatory signaling pathways such as the NF-κB/NLRP3 axis results in the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines. In this review, we first summarized the potential inflammatory mechanisms of wear particle-induced peri-implant osteolysis. Then, the therapeutic approaches, e.g., biological inhibitors, herbal products, and stem cells or their derivatives, with the ability to suppress the inflammatory responses, mainly NF-κB/NLRP3 signaling pathways, were discussed. Based on the results, activation of macrophages following inflammatory stimuli, overproduction of pro-inflammatory cytokines, and subsequent differentiation of osteoclasts in the presence of wear particles lead to bone resorption. The activation of NF-κB/NLRP3 signaling pathways within the macrophages stimulates the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, e.g., IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α. According to in vitro and in vivo studies, novel therapeutics significantly promoted osteogenesis, suppressed osteoclastogenesis, and diminished particle-mediated bone resorption. Conclusively, these findings offer that suppressing pro-inflammatory cytokines by regulating both NF-κB and NLRP3 inflammasome represents a novel approach to attenuate wear-particle-related osteolytic diseases.

Abstract
Osteolysis is one of the most prominent reasons of revision surgeries in total joint arthroplasty. This biological phenomenon is induced by wear particles and corrosion products that stimulate inflammatory biological response of surrounding tissues. The eventual responses of osteolysis are the activation of macrophages leading to bone resorption and prosthesis failure. Various factors are involved in the initiation of osteolysis from biological issues, design, material specifications, and model of the prosthesis to the health condition of the patient. Nevertheless, the factors leading to osteolysis are sometimes preventable. Changes in implant design and polyethylene manufacturing are striving to improve overall wear. Osteolysis is clinically asymptomatic and can be diagnosed and analyzed during follow-up sessions through various imaging modalities and methods, such as serial radiographic, CT scan, MRI, and image processing-based methods, especially with the use of artificial neural network algorithms. Deep learning algorithms with a variety of neural network structures such as CNN, U-Net, and Seg-UNet have proved to be efficient algorithms for medical image processing specifically in the field of orthopedics for the detection and segmentation of tumors. These deep learning algorithms can effectively detect and analyze osteolytic lesions well in advance during follow-up sessions in order to administer proper treatments before reaching a critical point. Osteolysis can be treated surgically or nonsurgically with medications. However, revision surgeries are the only solution for the progressive osteolysis. In this literature review, the underlying causes, mechanisms, and treatments of osteolysis are discussed with the main focus on the possible computer-based methods and algorithms that can be effectively employed for the detection of osteolysis.

Abstract
Clinical studies, as well as in vitro and in vivo experiments have demonstrated that byproducts from joint replacements induce an inflammatory reaction that can result in periprosthetic osteolysis (PPOL) and aseptic loosening (AL). Particle-stimulated macrophages and other cells release cytokines, chemokines, and other pro-inflammatory substances that perpetuate chronic inflammation, induce osteoclastic bone resorption and suppress bone formation. Differentiation, maturation, activation, and survival of osteoclasts at the bone-implant interface are under the control of the receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-Β ligand (RANKL)-dependent pathways, and the transcription factors like nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) and activator protein-1 (AP-1). Mechanical factors such as prosthetic micromotion and oscillations in fluid pressures also contribute to PPOL. The treatment for progressive PPOL is only surgical. In order to mitigate ongoing loss of host bone, a number of non-operative approaches have been proposed. However, except for the use of bisphosphonates in selected cases, none are evidence based. To date, the most successful and effective approach to preventing PPOL is usage of wear-resistant bearing couples in combination with advanced implant designs, reducing the load of metallic and polymer particles. These innovations have significantly decreased the revision rate due to AL and PPOL in the last decade.

Abstract
Although total hip arthroplasty is considered to be an effective surgical procedure for treating hip joint diseases, it is hindered by implant wear debris, which induces aseptic loosening. Various cell types are involved in this pathogenesis; however, the interactions between wear debris and osteoblasts, which serve a crucial role in bone formation, have not been clearly illustrated. In the present study, minor metallic wear particles were collected from the interfacial membrane around loosened implants of patients, and the biological effects of these particles on rat primary osteoblasts were then explored. The results demonstrated that metallic wear debris was able to induce the apoptosis of treated cells in a concentration- and time-dependent manner. Furthermore, it was identified that reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation increased, the mitochondrial membrane potential collapsed, and the mitochondria-caspase-dependent and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress apoptotic pathways were activated following metallic wear debris application. In addition, apoptosis and associated pathways were inhibited by the use of N-acetyl-L-cysteine, an antioxidant that suppresses ROS production, indicating that the ROS generation triggered ER stress, mitochondrial dysfunction and downstream cascades that contributed to cell apoptosis. These findings suggest that metallic wear debris-induced ROS serve an important role in the apoptosis of osteoblasts. This provides a valuable insight, not only into understanding the mechanisms underlying the involvement of osteoblasts in osteolysis, but also into a potential novel therapeutic approach to treat implant aseptic loosening.

Abstract
Metal wear particles play a major role in periprosthetic osteolysis and aseptic loosening in patients with total joint arthroplasty. The ability to induce osteolysis depends on the size, shape, dose, and type of the particles. However, much remains unknown regarding which type of metal particles are most reactive. We compared the inflammatory response and bone loss induced by two metal wear particles, cobalt-chromium-molybdenum (CoCrMo) and titanium (Ti), in a mouse calvaria model of osteolysis. We found that CoCrMo particles caused markedly greater bone resorption than Ti particles, according to three-dimensional images of the calvariae. CoCrMo particles activated more functional osteoclasts by significantly increasing the expression of the osteoclast-specific gene tartrate-specific acid phosphatase (Trap), calcitonin receptor (Ctr), and nuclear factor of activated T cells c1 (Nfatc1), and induced a greater increase in the ratio of receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B ligand (RANKL)/osteoprotegerin (OPG) than Ti particles. CoCrMo particles also induced a stronger local inflammatory response, markedly increasing the expression and secretion of tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-1β compared with Ti particles. Therefore, CoCrMo particles induced a more severe inflammatory response and greater osteolysis than Ti particles in vivo.

Abstract
Ti6Al4V printing particles have been recently used for fabricating orthopedic implants. Removing these particles completely from fabricated implants is challenging. Furthermore, recycled particles are commonly used in fabrication without additional analysis. Ti6Al4V wear particles derived from orthopedic implants are known to induce inflammatory responses and osteolysis. However, the biosafety of printing particles remains unknown. Here, we investigated the proinflammatory and osteolysis-inducing effects of commonly used original and recycled Ti6Al4V printing particles in vitro and in vivo. Our results indicated that although less serious effects were induced compared to wear particles, inflammatory responses and osteoclast-mediated bone resorption were induced by the original printing particles in a particle size-dependent manner. Recycled particles were found to more strongly stimulate bone resorption and inflammatory responses than the original particles; the in vivo effect was enhanced with an increase in particle concentration. Furthermore, the results of our in vitro experiments verified that the printing particles activate macrophages to secrete inflammatory cytokines and promote osteoclastogenesis, which is closely related to particle size and concentration. Taken together, our findings provide a valuable reference for the use of raw printing materials and examination of recycling procedures for implant fabrication.

Abstract
Wear debris is believed to cause periprosthetic osteolysis and loosening of total joint arthroplasties. We investigated the wear debris-mediated osteolysis in wild-type mice and macrophage-deficient Csf1op/Csf1op (op/op) mice using high density polyethylene (HDP) particles transplanted on the parietal bone surface. Four weeks after surgery, phagocytosis of the HDP particles by F4/80-positive macrophages and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP)-positive osteoclasts was observed in the normal mice, but not in the macrophage-deficient op/op mice. These results suggest that macrophages are implicated in wear debris-dependent osteoclast formation. However, HDP particles were phagocytosed not only by macrophages but also by F4/80-negative cells in both genotypes of mice. Electron microscopic observation identified these cells as fibroblasts. Cell culture studies demonstrated that fibroblasts cultured with HDP-particles showed upregulation of interleukin-6 (IL-6) expression compared with non-treated fibroblasts. When we examined the gene expression of osteoblasts that belong to the mesenchymal cell lineage as fibroblasts, we found that the expression of not only IL-6 but also interleukin-1 beta (IL-1ß), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and cyclooxygenase2 (Cox2) were up-regulated by HDP particle-stimulation. These findings suggest the possibility that fibroblasts and osteoblasts are involved in wear debris-mediated osteolysis within the tissue surrounding artificial joints through the production of bone resorbing factors IL-6, IL-1ß, TNF-α, and Cox2.

Abstract
Titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs) have been demonstrated to damage the kidneys. However, whether chronic nephritis leads to renal fibration or the fibrosis is associated with the activation of TGF-β/Smads/p38MAPK pathway caused by TiO2 NPs exposure is not well understood. Forty male mice were separately exposed to 0, 2.5, 5, or 10 mg/kg body weight TiO2 NPs for 6 months. Renal biochemical functions and levels of TGF-β/Smads/p38MAPK pathway-related markers and extracellular matrix (ECM) expression in the kidneys were investigated. The findings showed that subchronic TiO2 NPs exposure increased levels of urinary creatisix (Cr), N-acetyl-glucosaminidase, and vanin-1, resulted in severe renal inflammation and fibration. Furthermore, TiO2 NP exposure upregulated expression of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1, 0.07- to 2.72-fold), Smad2 (0.42- to 1.63-fold), Smad3 (0.02- to 1.94-fold), ECM (0.15- to 2.75-fold), α-smooth muscle actin (0.14- to 3.06-fold), p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38MAPK, 0.11- to 3.78-fold), and nuclear factor-κB (0.4- to 2.27-fold), and downregulated Smad7 (0.05- to 0.61-fold) expression in mouse kidney. Subchronic TiO2 NPs exposure induced changes of renal characteristics towards inflammation and fibration may be mediated via TGF-β/Smads/p38MAPK pathway, and the uses of TiO2 NPs should be carried out cautiously, especially in humans. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
Although TiO2 nanoparticles (NPs) as endocrine disruptors have been demonstrated to be able to cross the blood-testis barriers and induce reproductive toxicity in male animals, whether the reproductive toxicity of male animals due to exposure to endocrine disruptor TiO2 NPs is related to immunological dysfunction in the testis remains not well understood. This study determined whether the reproductive toxicity and immunological dysfunction induced by exposure to TiO2 NPs is associated with activation or inhibition of TAM/TLR-mediated signal pathway in mouse testis. The results showed that male mice exhibited significant reduction of fertility, infiltration of inflammatory cells, rarefaction, apoptosis, and/or necrosis of spermatogenic cells and Sertoli cells due to TiO2 NPs. Furthermore, these were associated with decreased expression of Tyro3 (-18.16 to -66.6%), Axl (-14.7 to -57.99%), Mer (-7.98 to -72.62%), and IκB (-11.25 to -63.16%), suppression of cytokine signaling (SOCS) 1 (-21.99 to -73.8%) and SOCS3 (-8.11 to -34.86%), and increased expression of Toll-like receptor (TLR)-3 (21.4-156.03%), TLR-4 (37.0-109.87%), nuclear factor-κB (14.75-69.34%), interleukin (IL)-lβ (46.15-123.08%), IL-6 (2.54-81.98%), tumor necrosis factor-α (6.95-88.39%), interferon (IFN)-α (2.54-37.25%), and IFN-β (10.19-80.56%), which are involved in the immune environment in the testis. The findings showed that reproductive toxicity of male mice induced by exposure to endocrine disruptor TiO2 NPs may be associated with biomarkers of impairment of immune environment or dysfunction of TAM/TLR3-mediated signal pathway in mouse testitis. Therefore, the potential risks to reproductive health should be attended, especially in those who are occupationally exposed to TiO2 NPs.

Abstract
The peri-prosthetic tissue response to wear debris is complex and influenced by various factors including the size, area and number of particles. We hypothesised that the ‘biologically active area’ of all metal wear particles may predict the type of peri-prosthetic tissue response. Peri-prosthetic tissue was sampled from 21 patients undergoing revision of a small diameter metal-on-metal (MoM) total hip arthroplasty (THA) for aseptic loosening. An enzymatic protocol was used for tissue digestion and scanning electron microscope was used to characterise particles. Equivalent circle diameters and particle areas were calculated. Histomorphometric analyses were performed on all tissue specimens. Aspirates of synovial fluid were collected for analysis of the cytokine profile analysis, and compared with a control group of patients undergoing primary THA (n = 11) and revision of a failed ceramic-on-polyethylene arthroplasty (n = 6). The overall distribution of the size and area of the particles in both lymphocyte and non-lymphocyte-dominated responses were similar; however, the subgroup with lymphocyte-dominated peri-prosthetic tissue responses had a significantly larger total number of particles. 14 cytokines (interleukin (IL)-1ß, IL-2, IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-10, IL-13, IL-17, interferon (IFN)-γ, and IFN-gamma-inducible protein 10), chemokines (macrophage inflammatory protein (MIP)-1α and MIP-1ß), and growth factors (granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and platelet derived growth factor) were detected at significantly higher levels in patients with metal wear debris compared with the control group. Significantly higher levels for IL-1ß, IL-5, IL-10 and GM-CSF were found in the subgroup of tissues from failed MoM THAs with a lymphocyte-dominated peri-prosthetic response compared with those without this response. These results suggest that the ‘biologically active area’ predicts the type of peri-prosthetic tissue response. The cytokines IL-1ß, IL-5, IL-10, and GM-CSF are associated with lymphocyte-dominated tissue responses from failed small-diameter MoM THA. Cite this article: Bone Joint J 2015;97-B:917–23.

Abstract
Numerous studies have indicated that nano-titanium dioxide (TiO2) can induce neurotoxicity in vitro and in vivo, however, it is unclear whether nano-TiO2 affects neurite outgrowth of hippocampal neurons. In order to investigate the mechanism of neurotoxicity, rat primary cultured hippocampal neurons on the fourth day of culture were exposed to 5, 15, and 30 μg/mL nano-TiO2 for 24 h, and nano-TiO2 internalization, dendritic growth, glutamate metabolism, expression of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor subunits (NR1, NR2A and NR2B), calcium homeostasis, sodium current (INa) and potassium current (IK) were examined. Our findings demonstrated that nano-TiO2 crossed the membrane into the cytoplasm or nucleus, and significantly suppressed dendritic growth of primary cultured hippocampal neurons in a concentration-dependent manner. Furthermore, nano-TiO2 induced a marked release of glutamate to the extracellular region, decreased glutamine synthetase activity and increased phosphate-activated glutaminase activity, elevated intracellular calcium ([Ca(2+)]i), down-regulated protein expression of NR1, NR2A and NR2B, and increased the amplitudes of the INa and IK. In addition, nano-TiO2 increased nitric oxide and nitrice synthase, attenuated the activities of Ca(2+)-ATPase and Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase, and increased the ADP/ATP ratio in the primary neurons. Taken together, these findings indicate that nano-TiO2 inhibits neurite outgrowth of hippocampal neurons by interfering with glutamate metabolism and impairing NMDA receptor function.

Abstract
Exposure to titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs) has been demonstrated to decrease learning and memory of animals. However, whether the impacts of these NPs on the recognition function are involved in hippocamal neuron damages is poorly understood. In this study, primary cultured hippocampal neurons from one-day-old fetal Sprague-Dawley rats were exposed to 5, 15, or 30 µg/mL TiO2 NPs for 24 h, we investigated cell viability, ultrastructure, and mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), calcium homeostasis, oxidative stress, antioxidant capacity, apoptotic signaling pathway associated with the primary cultured hippocamal neuron apoptosis. Our findings showed that TiO2 NP treatment resulted in reduction of cell viability, promoted lactate dehydrogenase release, apoptosis, and increased neuron apoptotic rate in a dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, TiO2 NPs led to [Ca(2+)]i elevation, and MMP reduction, up-regulated protein expression of cytochrome c, Bax, caspase-3, glucose-regulated protein 78, C/EBP homologous protein and caspase-12, and down-regulated bcl-2 expression in the primary cultured hippocampal neurons. These findings suggested that hippocampal neuron apoptosis caused by TiO2 NPs may be associated with mitochondria-mediated signal pathway and endoplasmic reticulum-mediated signal pathway.

Abstract
Wear debris, of deferent sizes, shapes and quantities, generated in artificial hip and knees is largely confined to the bone and joint interface. This debris interacts with periprosthetic tissue and may cause aseptic loosening. The purpose of this review is to summarize and collate findings of the recent demonstrations on debris characterization and their biological response that influences the occurrence in implant migration. A systematic review of peer-reviewed literature is performed, based on inclusion and exclusion criteria addressing mainly debris isolation, characterization, and biologic responses. Results show that debris characterization largely depends on their appropriate and accurate isolation protocol. The particles are found to be non-uniform in size and non-homogeneously distributed into the periprosthetic tissues. In addition, the sizes, shapes, and volumes of the particles are influenced by the types of joints, bearing geometry, material combination, and lubricant. Phagocytosis of wear debris is size dependent; high doses of submicron-sized particles induce significant level of secretion of bone resorbing factors. However, articles on wear debris from engineered surfaces (patterned and coated) are lacking. The findings suggest considering debris morphology as an important parameter to evaluate joint simulator and newly developed implant materials.

Abstract
Biologic reactivity to orthopedic implant debris mediates long-term clinical performance of total joint arthroplasty implants. However, the reasons that some facets of implant debris (e.g., particle size, shape, base material, etc.) are more pro-inflammatory remain controversial. This precludes accurate prediction and optimal design of modern total joint replacements. We hypothesized that debris particle size can influence adsorbed protein film composition and affect subsequent bioreactivity. We measured size-dependent proteinfilm adsorption, and adsorbed protein-film-dependent cytokine release using equal surface areas of different sized cobalt-chromium alloy (CoCr-alloy) particles and in vitro challenge of human macrophages (THP-1 and human primary). Smaller (5 μm diameter) versus larger (70 μm diameter) particles preferentially adsorbed more serum protein in general (p<0.03), where higher molecular weight serum proteins consistent with IgG were identified. Additionally, 5-μm CoCr-alloy particles pre-coated with different protein biofilms (IgG vs. albumin) resulted in a difference in cytokine expression in which albumin-coated particles induced more TNF-α release and IgG-coated particles induced more IL-1β release from human monocytes/macrophages. In these preliminary in vitro studies, we have demonstrated the capability of equal surface areas of different particle sizes to influence adsorbed protein composition and that adsorbed protein differences on identical particles can translate into complex differences in bioreactivity. Together, these findings suggest that adsorbed protein differences on different-sized particles of the same material may be a contributing mechanism by which certain particles induce different reactivities.

Abstract
AbstractThe characterization of wear particles is of great importance in understanding the mechanisms of osteolysis. In this unique study, thirty-one tissue samples were retrieved at revision surgeries of hip implants and divided into four groups according to the composition of metal prosthetic components. Tissue samples were first analyzed histologically and then by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) combined with back-scattered electron imaging and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. Therefore, particles were studied directly in situ in tissue sections, without the requirement for particle isolation. The composition of metal wear particles detected in the tissue sections corresponded to the composition of the implant components. A considerable number of large metal particles were actually clusters of submicron particles. The clustering of submicron particles was observed primarily with CoCrMo (cobalt-chromiummolybdenum) and, to a lesser extent, for stainless steel particles. SEM secondary and back-scattered electron imaging was an appropriate and selective method for recognizing the composition of metal particles in the in situ tissue sections, without destroying their spatial relationship within the histology. This method can be used as a screening tool for composition of metal and ceramic particles in tissue sections, or as an additional method for particle identification.

Abstract
The phagocytosis of wear particles by macrophages results in the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), which play a major role in promoting osteoclast recruitment. The inhibition of TNF-α expression decreases osteoclastogenesis. In a previous study, we demonstrated that bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) can activate wear debris-induced osteoclast recruitment in the presence of receptor activator of nuclear factor (NF)-κB ligand (RANKL); however, whether these effects are associated with pro-inflammatory cytokines remains unclear. In this study, we constructed an adenoviral vector carrying TNF-small interfering RNA (siRNA) (Ad-TNF-siRNA), as well as a vector carrying both the BMP-2 gene and TNF-α-siRNA (Ad-BMP-2-TNF-siRNA). The two adenoviral vectors significantly suppressed the expression of TNF-α; however, only treatment with Ad-TNF-siRNA significantly inhibited osteoclastogenesis. We demonstrate that the overexpression of BMP-2, despite the suppression of TNF-α expression by Ad-BMP-2-TNF-siRNA, increases the size and number of titanium (Ti) particle-induced multinuclear osteoclasts, the expression of osteoclast genes, as well as the resorption area. There were no differences observed between Ti particle-induced and Ad-BMP-2-TNF-siRNA-induced osteoclast formation. Moreover, Ad-BMP-2-TNF-siRNA directly acted upon osteoclast precursors by increasing the level of c-Fos, regulating other signaling pathways, such as p38 phosphorylated c-Jun N-terminal kinase (p-JNK) and phosphorylated IκB (p‑IκB). Taken together, these data demonstrate that treatment with Ad-BMP-2-TNF-siRNA increases wear debris-induced osteoclast formation by activating c-Fos and that these effects are not associated with pro-inflammatory cytokines.

Abstract
Titanium dioxide (TiO(2)) is a widely used nanomaterial that can cause biological damage through oxidative stress. At low concentrations, TiO(2) can interact with lead acetate (PbAc) to produce different toxic responses, compared with TiO(2) or PbAc alone. In this study, we utilized the following as indicators of toxic responses in human embryo hepatocytes (L02): reactive oxygen species (ROS), reduced glutathione (GSH), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and the DNA adducts 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) and 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase homolog 1 (OGG1). These were used to evaluate the oxidative stress of TiO(2) (at 0.001, 0.01, 0.1, 1, and 10 μg mL(-1)) mixed with PbAc (1 μg mL(-1)) on L02 cells without photoactivation. Compared with the negative control (1‰ dimethyl sulfoxide), TiO(2) mixed with PbAc induced increased release of ROS (at 0.001, 0.01, 0.1, 1, 10 μg mL(-1) TiO(2)), intracellular SOD activity (at 0.1 and 0.01 μg mL(-1) TiO(2)), GSH levels (at 0.01-1 μg mL(-1) TiO(2)), 8-OHdG levels (at 1 and 10 μg mL(-1) TiO(2)), OGG1 expression (at 0.001-1 μg mL(-1) TiO(2)), and cytotoxicity (at 0.1, 1, and 10 μg mL(-1) TiO(2)) in L02 cells. There were no significant changes in ROS, GSH, SOD, 8-OHdG, or OGG1 levels when L02 cells were treated with TiO(2) alone or PbAc alone. These findings indicate that TiO(2) and PbAc in combination induce cytotoxicity and oxidative stress in L02 cells in the absence of photoactivation.

[PMID: 19516964 PMCID: PMC2694561 DOI: 10.2174/138920208786847962] [Citation(s) in RCA: 48] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2008] [Revised: 06/03/2008] [Accepted: 06/10/2008] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Engineered nanomaterials are commonly defined as materials with at least one dimension of 100 nanometers or less. Such materials typically possess nanostructure-dependent properties (e.g., chemical, mechanical, electrical, optical, magnetic, biological), which make them desiderable for commercial or medical application. However, these same properties may potentially lead to nanostructure-dependent biological activity that differs from and is not directly predicted by the bulk properties of the constitutive chemicals and compounds. Nanoparticles and nanomaterials can be on the same scale of living cells components, including proteins, nucleic acids, lipids and cellular organelles. When considering nanoparticles it must be asked how man-made nanostructures can interact with or influence biological systems. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are an example of carbon-based nanomaterial, which has won a huge spreading in nanotechnology. The incorporation of CNTs in living systems has raised many concerns because of their hydrophobicity and tendency to aggregate and accumulate into cells, organs, and tissues with dangerous effects. Applications of toxicogenomics to both investigative and predictive toxicology will contribute to the in-depth investigation of molecular mechanisms or the mode of nanomaterials action that is achieved by using conventional toxicological approaches. Parallel toxicogenomic technologies will promote a valuable platform for the development of biomarkers, in order to predict possible nanomaterial's toxicity. The potential of characteristic gene expression profiles ("fingerprint") of exposure or toxicological response to nanoparticles will be discussed in the review to enhance comprehension of the molecular mechanism of in vivo and in vitro system exposed to nanomaterials.

Abstract
The size of wear particles emanating from a prosthesis at interfaces is critical to the interfacial properties of the joint replacement and responses from the biological environment. Nanoscale particles in particular require investigation. This project aimed to evaluate the osteoimmunological response to nanoscale ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) wear particles in vitro, including dendritic cells (DCs), macrophages, osteoclasts (OCs), cytokine secretion, and co-cultured OCs and osteoblasts (OBs). The wear particles generated from a constant-load knee prosthesis actuator were profiled using atomic force microscopy and fractionated into sizes of 0.05-0.2, 0.2-0.8, 0.8-1, 1-5 and 5-10 μm. The fractions were exposed to DCs isolated from mice spleen, human OCs, and co-cultured human OBs and OCs, and the effects of the particles on the cells were determined. Results revealed that exposure to nanoscale UHMWPE wear particles induced significant DC activation (p<0.05) and consequently increased cytokine interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-1β secretion (p<0.05). Exposure to nanoscale particles promoted OC maturation, resulting in the suppression of OB proliferation in OB and OC co-cultures. Therefore, the results of this study could contribute to a more mechanistic understanding of wear-debris-associated prosthesis failure. Furthermore, nanoscale UHMWPE wear particles should be considered as mediators of periprosthetic inflammation in the future development of biomaterials for joint replacement bearing surfaces.

Abstract
Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease (LCPD) is a juvenile form of osteonecrosis of the femoral head that presents in children aged 2-14 years. To date, there is no effective medical therapy for treating LCPD largely due to an inability to modulate the repair process, including the predominance of bone resorption. This investigation aims to evaluate the feasibility of using gold nanoparticles (GNPs) that are surface modified with a bisphosphonate compound for the treatment of osteonecrosis at the cellular level. Studies have found osteoclast-mediated resorption to be a process that contributes significantly to the pathogenesis of femoral head deformities arising from Perthes disease. Our in vitro model was designed to elucidate the effect of alendronate-(a bisphosphonate) modified GNPs, on osteoclastogenesis and osteoclast function. RAW 264.7 macrophage cells were cultured with recombinant mouse receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL), which stimulates osteoclastogenesis, and were then treated with alendronate-modified GNPs for 24, 48, and 72 h. Cell proliferation, osteoclast function, and osteoclast morphology were evaluated by trypan blue dye exclusion assay, tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) imaging. Comparative studies were performed with GNPs that were only stabilized with citrate ions and with alendronate alone. Neither osteoclastogenesis nor osteoclast function were adversely affected by the presence of the citrate-GNP. Alendronate-modified GNPs had an enhanced effect on inducing osteoclast apoptosis and impairing osteoclast function when compared to unbound alendronate populations.

Abstract
The total replacement of joints by the implantation of permanently indwelling prosthetic components has been one of the major successes of modern surgery in terms of relieving pain and correcting deformity. However, the aseptic loosening of a prosthetic-joint component is the most common reason for joint-revision surgery. Furthermore, it is thought that wear particles are one of the major contributors to the development and perpetuation of aseptic loosening. The aim of the present study was to identify the factors related to the aseptic loosening of an AISI 316L stainless steel total hip prosthesis. The stem was evaluated by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, with polished and rough regions being analyzed in order to establish the differences in the chemical compositions of both regions. Specific areas were examined using scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy and light microscopy.

Abstract
This study was undertaken to compare macrophage response to polycarbonate-urethane (PCU), a proposed alternative material to polyethylene in acetabular components of total hip arthroplasty to cross-linked ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (xUHMWPE) in the presence or absence of endotoxin. Polyethylene wear debris that is generated by total hip and knee replacements has been linked to osteolysis and limiting the lifespan of the implant. We added both lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-free and endotoxin-associated xUHMWPE and PCU particles to a human monocyte cell line (TH1) in culture and measured cell viability and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)alpha, interleukin (IL)-1beta, and prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) in the medium after 24 h. Results indicate that particles (both xUHMWPE and PCU) free of endotoxin did not significantly induce secretion of TNFalpha, IL-1beta, or PGE(2) above basal levels. However, endotoxin-exposed PCU particles induced significantly less TNFalpha and IL-1beta than endotoxin-exposed xUHMWPE particles. This indicates that if endotoxin is available for binding to particles in vivo, then xUHMWPE may be more inflammatory to periprosthetic tissue and bone in part because of its affinity/reactivity with endotoxin when compared with PCU.

Abstract
In tissue engineering, innate responses to biomaterial scaffolds will affect rejection of allogeneic cells. Biomaterials directly influence innate and adaptive immune cell adhesion, reactive oxygen intermediate production, cytokine secretion, nuclear factor-kappa B nuclear translocation, gene expression, and cell surface markers, all of which are likely to affect allogeneic rejection responses. A major goal in tissue engineering is to induce transplant tolerance, potentially by manipulating the biomaterial component. This review describes methods of measuring responses of macrophages, dendritic cells, and T cells stimulated in vitro and in vivo and addresses key factors in assay development. Such tests include mixed leukocyte reactions, enzyme-linked immunosorbent spot assays, trans-vivo delayed-type hypersensitivity assays, and measurement of dendritic cell subsets and anti-donor antibodies; we propose extending these studies to tissue engineering.

Abstract
Subcutaneous fat necrosis of the newborn (SCFN) is a panniculitis that develops in fatty areas during the first weeks of life after foetal distress or perinatal complications. Prognosis is generally good with complete regression, but it can be complicated by metabolic abnormalities like hypoglycemia, hypertriglyceridemia, thrombocytopenia, and also potentially life-threatening hypercalcemia. We report a case of severe hypercalcemia complicating SCFN in a newborn who was treated with hyperhydration, furosemide, prednisone, and pamidronate.

Abstract
Particle-induced periprosthetic osteolysis is the major cause for orthopedic implant failure. This failure is mediated mainly by the action of osteoclasts, the principal cells responsible for bone resorption and osteolysis. Therapeutic interventions to alleviate osteolysis have been focused on understanding and targeting mechanisms of osteoclastogenesis. The nuclear transcription factor NFAT is an essential terminal differentiation factor of osteoclastogenesis. This transcription factor is known to cooperate with c-jun/AP-1 in mediating RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis. We have previously determined that RANKL is an essential cytokine mediator of particle-induced osteoclastogenesis, and that PMMA particles activate JNK and c-jun/AP-1 in bone marrow macrophages (osteoclast precursors). In the current study, we investigated the effect of PMMA particles on the NFAT signaling pathway in osteoclast precursor cells. Our findings point out that PMMA particles stimulate nuclear translocation of NFAT2 in wild-type osteoclast precursors, which is associated with increased osteoclastogenesis. More importantly, induction of osteoclastogenesis was selectively blocked in a dose-dependent fashion by the calcineurin inhibitors, Cyclosporine-A and FK506. Further, this activation was also blocked in a time-dependent fashion by the NFAT inhibitor VIVIT. Finally, we provide novel evidence that PMMA particles induce binding of NFAT2 and AP-1 proteins. Thus, our findings demonstrate that activation of the NFAT pathway in conjunction with MAP kinases is essential for basal and PMMA-stimulated osteoclastogenesis.

Abstract
Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) is the key material for achieving excellent long-term results in total joint arthroplasties. Despite the fact that there has been a substantial amount of research and development over the years, new aspects of this material are still controversial and the most recent innovations have had a variable reception regarding clinical use. Advancements in conventional UHMWPE in the 1990s (nitrogen atmosphere irradiation, barrier package) were further improved by introduction of first-generation crosslinked polyethylene, as seen both from laboratory findings and clinical results. However, while clinical data on first-generation highly crosslinked polyethylene (HXLPE) showed reduced wear in the medium-term, academic and industrial research have helped to refine the material further, to overcome criticisms regarding residual oxidation and potential material fracture. Present concerns, although less nowadays, relate to the post-irradiation techniques used to stabilize the crosslinked polyethylene, namely annealing and remelting. Current topics of research interest include in vivo oxidation, second-generation highly crosslinked polyethylene, vitamin E doped or blended polyethylene, fracture mechanics, and consequences of wear. Some of these improvements derived from recent research are already available to the orthopedic community, and others will appear in the next few years. This review gives an overview of these topics, and the latest advancements are described in detail with a view to help the orthopedic surgeon make scientifically sound decisions when selecting material for total-joint implants. We conclude the review by affirming that today's state-of-the-art material is no longer conventional UHMWPE, but HXLPE.1.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Titanium dioxide is a widely used nanomaterial whose photo-reactivity suggests that it could damage biological targets (e.g., brain) through oxidative stress (OS). OBJECTIVES Brain cultures of immortalized mouse microglia (BV2), rat dopaminergic (DA) neurons (N27), and primary cultures of embryonic rat striatum, were exposed to Degussa P25, a commercially available TiO(2) nanomaterial. Physical properties of P25 were measured under conditions that paralleled biological measures. FINDINGS P25 rapidly aggregated in physiological buffer (800-1,900 nm; 25 degrees C) and exposure media (approximately 330 nm; 37 degrees C), and maintained a negative zeta potential in both buffer (-12.2 +/- 1.6 mV) and media (-9.1 +/- 1.2 mV). BV2 microglia exposed to P25 (2.5-120 ppm) responded with an immediate and prolonged release of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Hoechst nuclear stain was reduced after 24-hr (>or=100 ppm) and 48-hr (>or=2.5 ppm) exposure. Microarray analysis on P25-exposed BV2 microglia indicated up-regulation of inflammatory, apoptotic, and cell cycling pathways and down-regulation of energy metabolism. P25 (2.5-120 ppm) stimulated increases of intracellular ATP and caspase 3/7 activity in isolated N27 neurons (24-48 hr) but did not produce cytotoxicity after 72-hr exposure. Primary cultures of rat striatum exposed to P25 (5 ppm) showed a reduction of immunohistochemically stained neurons and microscopic evidence of neuronal apoptosis after 6-hr exposure. These findings indicate that P25 stimulates ROS in BV2 microglia and is nontoxic to isolated N27 neurons. However, P25 rapidly damages neurons at low concentrations in complex brain cultures, plausibly though microglial generated ROS.

Abstract
There are no studies on the cellular activity in the early phase of biodegradation and bone healing of bone substitutes loaded with platelet factors (PLF). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the cellular effects of PLF in combination with nanoparticulate hydroxyapatite (HA) on the biodegradation and bone formation after 20 days. Autogenous PLFs were obtained by centrifugation of miniature pig blood samples and subsequent degranulation of platelets by calcium and thrombin. A cylindrical bone defect with a diameter of 8.9 mm was created in the distal femoral condyle of 20 miniature pigs. Four of the defects were left empty, 8 were filled with HA with loading and 8 with HA loaded with PLF. The distal femur was harvested after 20 days and TRAP-staining, cathepsin-K and CD44 staining and scanning electron microscopy were performed for cellular assessment of biodegradation was done. Histomorphometry of new bone formation and of biodegradation of HA material was performed. PLF loading of HA led to statistically significant more TRAP-positive cells with enhanced biodegradation of the nanoparticulate HA but no statistically enhanced new bone formation compared to unloaded HA. Furthermore, there was a higher number of CD44 and cathepsin-K positive cells by PLF-loading. In summary, PLF led to stimulation of the cellular process of the biodegradation of HA.

Abstract
Total joint replacement, although considered an excellent surgical procedure, can be complicated by osteolysis induced by implant particles and subsequent aseptic loosening of the implant. The pathogenesis of implant-associated osteolysis includes inflammatory and osteolytic processes. The sustained chronic inflammatory response initiated by particulate debris at the implant-bone interface is manifested by recruitment of a wide array of cell types. These cells include macrophages, fibroblasts, giant cells, neutrophils, lymphocytes, and--most importantly--osteoclasts, which are the principal bone resorbing cells. The 'cellular response' entails secretion of osteoclastogenic and inflammatory cytokines that favor exacerbated osteoclast activity and enhanced osteolysis. An appreciation of the complex network that leads to these cellular and inflammatory responses will form a foundation on which to develop therapeutic interventions to combat inflammatory periprosthetic bone loss.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Subcutaneous fat necrosis (SCFN) of the newborn is an uncommon disorder that occurs in the first weeks of life after foetal distress. It can be complicated by potentially life-threatening hypercalcemia. Treatments of hypercalcemia have included hydration, furosemide and corticosteroids. Only one report has described the use of intravenous bisphosphonates for this condition. We propose that pamidronate could be the first line therapy for severe hypercalcemia in SCFN. PATIENTS AND RESULTS Four newborns presented between 2001 and 2004 with SCFN complicated by severe hypercalcemia. At diagnosis, ionized calcium levels were higher than 1.4 mmol/l and were associated with high urinary calcium/creatinine ratios and high 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D levels. Despite treatment with IV fluids, low calcium diet and furosemide, calcium levels remained high. The patients were given 3-4 doses (0.25-0.50 mg/kg/dose) of pamidronate. Urinary calcium/creatinine ratios and calcium levels decreased within 48-96 h. 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D levels normalized with resolution of the skin lesions. No persistent nephrocalcinosis was observed. CONCLUSION Pamidronate is effective, well-tolerated in the short-term and obviates the need for prolonged treatment with furosemide and corticosteroids. To prevent nephrocalcinosis, pamidronate might be considered as first line treatment for severe hypercalcemia in SCFN.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite the wide clinical use of bone cement, little is known about cellular responses to the debris from this material. We thus investigated the effects of bone cement particles on the secretion of soluble osteotropic factors in prosthetic pseudomembrane-derived fibroblasts. METHODS Bone cement particles were added to fibroblasts maintained in tissue culture. The secretions of soluble receptor activator for nuclear factor kappa B ligand and osteoprotegerin together with interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha were assessed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. The fibroblasts were also co-cultured with osteoclast precursors in the presence and absence of particles, and we assessed osteoclast formation and bone resorption. RESULTS The particles produced an increase in the secretion of soluble receptor activator for nuclear factor kappa B ligand, interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha, but not osteoprotegerin. At a concentration of 88 particles/cell, bone cement particles yielded a 2-fold increase (327 pg/mL) in soluble receptor activator for nuclear factor kappa B ligand secretion, a 5-fold (239 pg/mL) increase in interleukin-6 secretion and 4-fold (129 pg/mL) increase in tumor necrosis factor-alpha secretion. The particles also enhanced bone resorption in the co-culture group. Both the increase in soluble receptor activator for nuclear factor kappa B ligand secretion and the increase in bone resorption were inhibited by the addition of neutralizing antibodies to the proinflammatory cytokines. INTERPRETATION Our findings show that bone cement particles are capable of stimulating the secretion of soluble receptor activator for nuclear factor kappa B ligand in pseudocapsule-derived fibroblasts by increasing the secretion of proinflammatory cytokines, and may also promote implant loosening.

Abstract
With the increased presence of nanomaterials in commercial products, a growing public debate is emerging on whether the environmental and social costs of nanotechnology outweigh its many benefits. To date, few studies have investigated the toxicological and environmental effects of direct and indirect exposure to nanomaterials and no clear guidelines exist to quantify these effects.
